Τι να κάνω αν η στατίνη προκαλεί μυϊκούς πόνους με ινομυαλγία;

Έχω ινομυαλγία και παίρνω αντιεπιληπτικά. Μου έδωσαν στατινη για χοληστερόλη 238 ολική, 78 hdl και 145 ldl. Μετά από δέκα μέρες άρχισα να έχω μυϊκούς πόνους, έντονους χτύπους στην καρδιά και στις καρωτίδες . Σταμάτησα τις στατινες και επανηλθα. Τι πρέπει να κάνω τώρα για τη χοληστερόλη;

  • Συνήθης παρενέργεια, αλλάζετε στατινη.
    Απλά ολοκληρώσετε κι ένα βιοχημικό έλεγχο για μερική αντικειμενικόποίηση των συμπτωμάτων γιατί κάποια δεν σχετίζονται.
